Europe and it's Colonies.

How ought you to decide the population Of
different countries-by the number of in
habitants in the several mother countries
only, or by that of their subjects all the
world over? On the latter basis French
writer has recently compiled some interest
ony inhabitants but the tots
number of persons living under the Portu-
guese flag is nearly twice as many q, 896, 628).
Of M,0O0,OOO Spanish subjects, only 16,O00,-
900 live in Europe. The population Of tho
number of Dutch subjects is s., 100000. On
this same basis Germany is far less populous
than France. 1t is France, says the writer
we are quoting, wherever the French flag
flies. The number of Frenchmen thus in
terpreted is 7O,798.0S3 (of whom 58,Ns,90S
live in France-in- Europe), but that of the
Germans is only little more than Al, 000, 000
The total number of British subjects, we
may add, is put at 3O6, 81 ,514.-PaH Mall

covered with a multitude of pustular-look-
ing warts, boils and pimples, the skin
wrinkled in deep, .fiabby folds, and marked
by dark venous lines which show clearly

not nearly so quiet or graceful as those of
the seal or sea lion, and on land they are
almost helpless, for which reason they rarely
come outside of the surf wash. They go
about in large herds, which now and then
emerge to sleep. First one lands and lays
itself out and then second comes and gives
its predecessor shove whereupOn he moves
little further up; then comes No. 8, who
pokes up No. 2, who prods No. 1, and SO on

1t feeds exclusively upon shellfish and the
dubious roots and tender stalks of certain
marine plants, which grow abundantly at
the bottom of these bays and lagoons of the
Alaska coast, and it is evidently for digging
up these that it uses its tusks. and not, as is
reported, for the purpose of hauling itself
upon ice or rock. Another blow to received
opinions is given by Mr.. Elliott's testimony
as to the cowardice of the brutes. They will
snort or blow to any extent in the water, but
as to attacking boat, that is the very last
thing that would enter. their heads. 1t is
unfortunate that no females were to be
found about the island. The natives say
that the creature is homogeneous; that the
female brings forth a single calf in June,
usually on the ice foes north of Behring
straits; that it resembles its parents in gen
eral character when six weeks old, but that
its tusks do not appear till the second year,
and that the mother is strongly attached to
and nurses it in the season in the sea.-AH

A MECHANICS FORTUNE.

He Invents an Axle Box and Nut which
VIII Bring Him Large Returns.
A young English mechanic in Troy not
long ago invented new axle box and nut
which had great deal of merit in IT, and
which attracted the attention of Brewster,
the New York carriage maker. The Albany
Journal says that one day one of Mr..
Brewster's agents went to the shop in Troy
where the young Englishman was employed
and asked him about his invention and
patent, and finally made him an offer of $780,.
600 in cash for the latter. The young man
thought he would accept, but asked few
hours to consider. He talked with his en-
ployers, and as they had aided him in Sc
curing his patent, they suggested that he
give them the privilege of making the pur-
chase. They offered him $25 600 and half
interest in the profits. He accepted the offer
and the next day he informed Mr.. Brewsters
representative ofthe fact The latter gentle
man promptly said: NOW that you have
made up your mind, / want to say to you
that we have made as high as SIS, 900 year
out of what we call the Brewster spring, and
that is not worth to us nearly what your axle
would bring us. You have a very valuable
invention" The proof of this statement de-
veloped itself almost Immediately, and it is
said that the Troy concern which has under
taken the manufacture of the new invention
will realize profit from 500. 900 to $500, 900
syear fromit. The young English mechanic
will soon be q yery rich man.

The Human Eye and Colors.

It has been laid down by M. Chevreul
chat the human eye cannot long be en-
ployed in the perception Of given color
without tending to become insensible and to
arouse an impression similar to that ordi-
narily produced by the perception of white
light. Dr. Beclard has also noticed that
when the eve is directed for a time upon q
colored field the other eye being closed, if
the eye which was open be in turn closed
and the other opened a specter of the COM
Elementary color will be perceived; thus, if
the right eye has observed a red disk, the
left being shut, a reversal of this state Of
things would result in the perception of Q
green disk by the freshly opened left eye.
In virtue of the same property of the eye,
when two tints are placed beside each other
the nearest edge Of the one will appear as
though deprived of all the colored rays
which it may have in common with the
other. An analogous effect is produced with
grays non-colored, that is to say, formed
simply of white and black.-Pttsburg Dis

most popular musicians with the people
are the vocalists, dressed in Italian cos
tunes; the singers travel from place to
place to sing and dance. The King of Italy,
however, has done much good in break
ing up the padrone business, and small

of the bagpipes and see crowd you can
imagine that in the interior of the
cafe before which they stand will be a
scene like this.
The Neapolitans play with all their
heart and soul, and although their music
may not be at all times as fine as that one
hears at the opera, it is not because the
musicians have not their heart in their
work. Since the King of Italy has been
using such strenuous efforts land with
poor success) to suppress begging, the
worthless creatures have taken to all
sorts of trades and tricks to extract the
nimble centissimi from the traveller, and
many have turned musicians. 1t seems
as if blind men, one-armed or one-legged
creatures, deformed children and mon
strosities are at premium here. II a

members of the family take turns in
going out with him to beg, and the
way they persist in following a
stranger is worthy of the penny they
extract from the unwilling tourist. One
gives it in self-defense. Children seem
to take delight in having toe or finger
less on hand or foot and show it to the
passer-by with as much delight as if it
were picture by an old master and
worth fee to see.
The people here are lazy, as one can
well imagine. If it is hot you can walk
along the street and see men stretched
out asleep in every conceivable place.

on the doorsteps of the house under the
little fruit stands that line the thorough

seem to drop down wherever they feel
sleepy. If they are working and it
grows too hot they stop and 60 home.
If it rains, and gang of men are re-

time.

the alcohol l shall touch till the same

worst thing man in my profession can
make bad use of. The beasts seem to
know when man has taken too much.
One would fancy they can discriminate
between real courage and that bravado
which you call Dutch courage. All
these accidents that you read about in
the papers are caused by the drunken
ness of lion-tamers, who bring their
courage up to sticking point by excessive
drinking. / take no alcohol at all, ex-

Prince and the Princess of Wales

the time of the exhibition, l entered
the cage in their presence and in the pres
ence of Gambetta, Emile de Girardin,
and others, and mastered six full-grown
African lions which l had received

In the political excitement of the hour the
public gives small heed to the news of NJ.

the Sorbonne fascinated the ladies of the Fan

not understand what he said There was
music in his words which chung to their ears.
His lectures on Schopenhauers pessimism
had the effect of smelling salts ON many an
indolent brain. He seemed bright and clear,
and yet was hazy. He used to take his fair
hearers to the uppermost heights of meta
physics, iuggle with ideas, and then take
them down again. 1 don't suppose any of
them were the wiser for hearing him discuss
such questions as the first and final causes
Is there evidence of plan in this world?
Where are we to look for tokens of purpose

think of the case sciencei is making out against
spiritualism? Is life worth living? He APP
